Weekend Roundup 5/24/13-5/25/26: Fast & Furious 6 drives to #1 Spot!

This weekend’s Box Office had some pretty big competition. You had the sequels to Fast & Furious and The Hangover; plus an animated kids movie in, Epic. It’s a bit of a surprise to see that the sixth entry in the Fast & the Furious series take the top spot. Bringing in $98mil dollars, the Vin Diesel and Rock combination has made it the #1 film in the franchise as well.

Hangover III and Epic brought in $42mil and $34mil respectively, making the total Box Office earnings the biggest Memorial Day weekend of all time.
